I remember when we moved to the new building at work. I was just going 
to pay maybe £300 for some new network switches. But no, the Director of 
IT insisted that we had to buy Cisco switches, which are £1,500 each.

As soon as we started setting them up, I quickly realised that they 
aren't switches at all. They're routers. You can filter traffic, route 
between different network numbers and God only knows what else. (Not, of 
course, that *I* have access to do any of this. I'm only the person in 
charge of the network, right?)
